Given Fraction:
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 4 and 24 equals 4, GCF(4, 24) = 4
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
4/24
Determine the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator:
Greatest Common Factor of 4 and 24 equals 4, GCF(4, 24) = 4
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF:
4/24
= 4 ÷ 4/24 ÷ 4
= 1/6
(1 is the only factor common to 1 and 6)Therefore, 4/24
is equal to 1/6
in Simplest Form: 4/24
